  • The coverslips were removed for fluorescence microscopic observation immediately before collecting cells for flow cytometric analysis of DNA content and GFP expression.

  • Coverslips were washed 3× with PBS and stored at room temperature before staining.

  • 7% formaldehyde at -20°C for 20 minutes, then washed twice with 1 × PBS; the coverslips where then incubated with a 1:200 dilution of rabbit anti-cyclin D 1 antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology) or control rabbit sera (Biogenex) for 2 hours at room temperature followed by three washes with 1 × PBS; the coverslips were then incubated with a 1:250 dilution of rhodamine-labeled donkey-anti-rabbit anti-sera (Chemicon) for 45 minutes to detect the primary antibody; following three final washes with 1 × PBS, the coverslips were mounted on glass slides using ProLong Antifade (Molecular Probes) for fluorescent detection of GFP and cyclin D 1 on an Olympus IX70 microscope at 100 × magnification.
